I believe that education is about personal development and empowering students to live healthy, active, productive lives. My classroom teaching emphasizes the importance of students as human beings and education as a process. In addition, my passion for wellness is reflected in how I live. ‘Leading by example’ and modeling healthy active living are important aspects of how I demonstrate my love for kinesiology.
